Hidden away in the shimmering waters of the North Malé Atoll, Eriyadu Island Resort is a gateway to one of the most extraordinary marine environments in the Maldives. With its rich biodiversity, vibrant coral reefs, and direct access to some of the best dive and snorkel spots in the region, this island retreat is a dream come true for marine life enthusiasts. Whether you’re an experienced diver or a curious snorkeller, Eriyadu offers a front-row seat to the wonders of the underwater world.
Your House Reef, Just Steps Away
What sets Eriyadu apart is the thriving house reef that hugs the island’s perimeter. Only a few fin kicks from the shore, the reef teems with life—from curious reef sharks to swaying sea fans and dazzling shoals of fish. It’s one of the few places in the Maldives where snorkellers can spot turtles, moray eels, and even eagle rays within minutes of entering the water. Whether you’re heading out in the morning light or catching the golden hour glow beneath the surface, every swim becomes an unforgettable encounter with nature.
Dive into a World of Discovery
For those eager to go deeper, Eriyadu’s fully equipped dive centre offers access to over 30 nearby dive sites, each brimming with marine magic. Drift along dramatic drop-offs, explore colourful coral gardens, or venture into the blue where manta rays glide and reef sharks patrol. Our experienced instructors and dive crew know every corner of these waters and are passionate about introducing guests to their secrets—safely and sustainably. Courses for beginners, guided dives for certified divers, and even night dives are all part of the Eriyadu experience.
Eco-Conscious Encounters
As a resort that values its natural surroundings, Eriyadu is committed to responsible marine tourism. We actively support reef conservation and aim to educate and inspire guests to care for the ocean. Our excursions are led by guides who understand the delicate balance of the reef ecosystem, and we’re proud to offer low-impact marine adventures that prioritise preservation alongside exploration. At Eriyadu, experiencing marine life isn’t just about seeing—it’s about understanding, respecting, and protecting it.
Adventures Above the Surface
While the underwater world takes centre stage, the surface holds its own kind of charm. Hop aboard a dhoni for a dolphin cruise at sunset or set out on a guided snorkelling safari to nearby reefs. You might even find yourself on a secluded sandbank, surrounded by nothing but endless blue. Every outing is designed to bring you closer to the natural rhythms of the Maldives, blending comfort, adventure, and a touch of Eriyadu’s island magic.
Stay Close to Nature
After a day of aquatic adventure, retreat to your Beach Villa and relax to the sound of waves and rustling palms. Whether you’re travelling solo, with a partner, or with family, our refreshed accommodations and welcoming atmosphere make for the perfect base to connect with nature—and with each other.
Eriyadu isn’t just a place you visit—it’s a place you feel. For marine life enthusiasts, it’s a natural paradise waiting to be explored, respected, and remembered. So pack your fins, bring your curiosity, and get ready to meet the Maldives the Eriyadu way: vibrant, immersive, and filled with wonder.

Nothing beats a tropical escape with your favourite people — laughter echoing over turquoise waters, shared sunsets on the beach, and unforgettable moments that become inside jokes for years to come.
Life on an island moves to a different rhythm—one dictated not by schedules or alarms, but by the rising and setting of the sun, the ebb and flow of the tides, and the gentle whispers of the breeze through the palms.
